      Wharton's Jelly mesenchymal stem cells (WJ-MSCs) are an attractive potential source of multipotent stem cells for bone tissue replacement therapies. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in their osteogenic conversion ...
    • Bustos, Fernando J.; Jury, Nur; Martínez, Pablo; Ampuero, Estibaliz; Campos, Matías; Abarzua, Sebastián; Jaramillo, Karen; Ibing, Susanne; Mardones, Muriel D.; Haensgen, Henny; Kzhyshkowska, Julia; Tevy, María Florencia; Neve, Rachael; Sanhueza Toha, María Magdalena; Varela Nallar, Lorena; Montecino, Martín; Van Zundert, Brigitte (Wiley, 2017)
      Dendrite arbor growth, or dendritogenesis, is choreographed by a diverse set of cues, including the NMDA receptor (NMDAR) subunits NR2A and NR2B. While NR1NR2B receptors are predominantly expressed in immature neurons and ...

      Tumor hypoxia and the hypoxia inducible factor-1, HIF-1, play critical roles in cancer progression and metastasis. We previously showed that hypoxia activates the endosomal GTPase Rab5, leading to tumor cell migration and ...
